"Confidence is at the root of so many attractive qualities, a sense of humor, a sense of style, a willingness to be who you are no matter what anyone else might think or say and it's true, I do have a certain fondness for women that have dark hair"
About this Quote
The sentence structure mirrors the idea: it tumbles forward in a long, breathy run-on, like someone thinking out loud rather than delivering a maxim. That casualness matters. It positions confidence as lived experience, not a TED Talk lesson.
Then he veers into preference: “fondness for women that have dark hair.” On the surface it’s a throwaway, a personal detail to soften the sermon. Subtextually, it reveals how easily “authenticity” talk slides into taste-making, how quickly a universal-sounding claim becomes one person’s gaze. Depending on when he said it, it also reads as a snapshot of pre-Instagram celebrity candor: mildly flirtatious, a little clumsy, more human than calibrated. The charm is the mix of earnest self-definition and unfiltered preference - confidence, demonstrated rather than announced.
